Summer in the archipelago

Summer is coming soon, well I would at least like to think so. Looking forward to it when it does arrive. I am very happy with these wide scene formats I have been painting recently but they do present a problem, they look very small when I present them on Facebook or even here on my website. It’s a pity because they look real good framed and hanging on the wall. I am considering just showing a 4 by 3 version, cropping the watercolour to suit social media. Instagram is even worse, it is square!
Format: 37 x 12.5 cm

Welcome!

My name is David Meldrum, I live in Stockholm, Sweden. I have just given up my day job and became a full-time artist.

It was February 2012 when I painted my first watercolour and found it fascinating. The year before that I had started drawing again 30 years after leaving art college back in 1981. I am hopelessly addicted to art now and spend everyday trying to improve my skills. I am very curious to know how good I can become and what I can achieve.
